Overview

This walk is mainly through woodland and meadows with some moderate ascents and descents, mostly stepped. The initial route takes us through Lloyd`s Coppice and two local nature reserves before climbing steeply to The Rotunda with good views across the gorge. After lunch in Coalbrookdale, we walk a fairly flat return route along Rough Park Way and The Silkin Way.
